ive never heard anything about what sort of power steph has in the organization, got to think hes at least a little bit frustrated at this point

crazy with the new lottery system the worst team has a less than 50% chance of landing in the top 3, its good this way imo more fun, not sure if its had the desired effect of stopping tanking tho the worst team still has the best odds and the highest floor
― lag∞n, Sunday, 14 February 2021 16:37 (three years ago) link
minny currently has the worst record which would put them at 60% to get either the 4 or 5 pick, pretty sick for the warriors
― lag∞n, Sunday, 14 February 2021 16:39 (three years ago) link
if they got the 4th pick in this draft they could actually hope within reason to get a player who could turn out to be as good as bradley beal, which i think would maybe make it untradeable. i’m not sure that’s quite true if it drops to 5 or 6.

As long as klay is still good it’s still the best situation for him
― a nice controlled drift (Spottie), Sunday, 14 February 2021 17:20 (three years ago) link
his contract is up after next season, he’s extension eligible and hasn’t signed, and if he got traded to a contending team he could potentially flip the balance of the league... and there’s just zero talk of this happening at all. there must be no agitation coming from his side

even if the tier extends to 6, aren't the odds of picking someone who would turn out to be as good as beal (ie, a top 15ish player) pretty low? for a team that's rebuilding that's a gamble you take, but for a team with an MVP candidate and some other potential pieces it seems like the sort of thing you leverage for a sure thing of a current star

I agree, I’m a huge Beal guy
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 14 February 2021 18:44 (three years ago) link
I think the nuggets need to get Beal tbh
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 14 February 2021 18:52 (three years ago) link
it’s a really fascinating question! if they get a beal level talent in there at age 19 it’s prob more valuable to the franchise than getting the actual brad beal at age 27. it’s a gamble that you’re going to get that player, but it would also be a gamble to give up wiseman and the wolves pick for 2-3 more years of contention knowing that after thar you’re restarting your franchise from scratch with zero assets to speak of outside of your own picks. i think it would be an easier decision if this upcoming draft wasn’t abnormally loaded, but then again the pick has a 50/50 chance of rolling over at this point
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 14 February 2021 19:19 (three years ago) link
i think the warriors trading for beal would be a bad idea
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 14 February 2021 19:26 (three years ago) link
yeah, they are several pieces away from contending this year, and each year that follows they stray further from hoops god.
would love to see bradley in so many non-california places.

After tonight's game, arguably Ricky Rubio's best of the season, Rubio spoke postgame about how his "spirit" was really down at the beginning of the season.He credited one teammate for the shift in his spirit over the past few weeks... Anthony Edwards.— Dane Moore (@DaneMooreNBA) February 15, 2021

Anthony Edwards being a superstar would rule so much. Just the most gregarious guy who doesn’t take anything seriously. Too many great athletes are Tom Cruise in Collateral

I have a feeling that in the right situation Blake would get back into one last training jag with the guy who wears a mask and have a good season

looks like the AD injury is not was bad as it could have been. Considering the lack of a real homecourt advantage there is no need to rush him back.

The chicago bulls are the least interesting team to me. I think Zach Lavine is having an amazing season? Don’t care
― Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 16 February 2021 04:13 (three years ago) link
Weird team for sure. They really haven’t been interesting in a long time. Lavines shooting numbers are insane but I still put him in that category with like Drummond or Beal where I don’t know if they’re actually any good / can help a good team win.

career high 42, a lot of these are just typical bad simmons half court shots that went in or good simmons transition shots but a few have him as the roll man and looked pretty good, free simmons

As loveable and sympathetic as Dray is there, you gotta think Bob Myers' heart beats a little faster hearing that. Not that it hints at any sour notes in Dray's relationship with GSW, but that when those notes eventually come, what is he going to say then?
To be clear - not saying that's a bad thing. In fact it's awesome if players hold teams accountable in that more outspoken way. Go Dray
